[quote=Anonymous][quote]OK, but then you do know how she is doing. She is doing well in math, and she is not doing well (or at least not as well as you think she should be doing) in writing.

So I don't understand how this supports the idea parents do not know how their children are doing because of the new report card format.[/quote]

Are you kidding?? You really think that a report card with all Ps and all assignments coming home with nothing more than a check or a P is giving parents substantive feedback? Furthermore, if the assignments come home without a rubric how would any parent know what was originally expected for the assignment? In the new system, it seems to perfectly acceptable for a child not to improve as long as where they started was within the P range.

In the past, if something came home with any grade there was some commentary. If your child received an S the teacher would willingly tell you what was expected for an O and what your child should work on. When the child received an O, the teacher made some short comment on what they did a good job on to receive the O. The report card had comments.
